New study tests simpler dental implant method to avoid extra surgery

NCT ID NCT06252324

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study compares two ways to place dental implants in people with bone loss. One technique places the implant at the gum level (tissue-level), while the other places it at the bone level and requires a second surgery to uncover it. Researchers will track bone changes, implant survival, and pain over 3 years in 80 adults. The goal is to see if the simpler tissue-level method works as well.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
dental implant (tissue-level or bone-level surgical technique)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a simpler tissue-level implant technique works as well as the standard bone-level method, reducing the need for extra surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The surgeon knows which technique is used, which could bias outcomes.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 80 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Jan 2023

Expected to finish

Dec 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
